Question: 1 / 400

The quality of digital recordings will _____ as more copies are made.

Decrease

When making digital recordings, the quality tends to degrade with each successive copy due to the process of copying and the potential loss of data fidelity. This is particularly true when the digital format in use is lossy, meaning that some audio or visual information is discarded during compression to save space. Each time a new copy is made from a previous one, this compression can introduce errors and decrease the overall quality of the recording. While some formats may be lossless and preserve quality during each copy, the general consensus is that when speaking about multiple generations of copies, the overall quality will decline. This phenomenon is especially evident in analog recordings, but applies to digital formats when there is repeated compression or inadequate preservation techniques employed. Thus, the assertion that the quality decreases as more copies are made aligns with standard understandings of digital reproduction processes.
